Houston Astros
Keuchel wasn’t very efficient in his last outing as he was tagged with his ninth loss of the season in a 2-11 loss to the Texas Rangers. He went five innings giving up six hits, three earned runs, and one home run while he struck out five and walked two.
In 135.0 innings this season, Keuchel owns a low strikeout rate (6.87 K/9), a low walk rate (2.40 BB/9), a solid home run rate (0.87 HR/9), and he has done a decent job stranding base runners (73.3% LOB%). The end-result is a solid 3.60 ERA and 3.71 FIP.

Houston has been playing losing baseball in the past week as they could only win one of their six contests. During that span their lineup is only slashing .174/.239/.311 to go with 13 extra-base hits and 18 RBI.
Seattle Mariners
LeBlanc was able to put in a quality start in his last outing, but walked away with the no-decision as Seattle went on to lose to the Los Angeles Angels 3-4. He went six innings giving up five hits and three earned runs while he struck out six and walked three.
In 102.2 innings this season, the lefty owns a decent strikeout (7.19 K/9) to walk (1.93 BB/9) rate, while he’s struggled a tad against the long ball (1.23 HR/9), but he has be exceptional at stranding base runners (78.5% LOB%). The end-result is a solid 3.51 ERA and a slightly higher 4.04 FIP.
Seattle has played mediocre baseball in the past week winning three of their last six contests. During that span their lineup is slashing .253/.312/.389 to go with 12 extra-base hits and 23 RBI.

Free Houston Astros vs. Seattle Mariners MLB Prediction: Seattle takes down Houston at home
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Mariners +116 & UNDER 8 Runs
Houston is playing sub-par baseball right now, while Seattle is playing mediocre baseball. LeBlanc has been wheeling and dealing, while Keuchel hasn’t been terrible either. I expect Seattle to edge out this slumping Houston squad while this remains a low-scoring affair.
